I'm going for a Manly win by 18pts

4 points start for leeds

Just won 2 tickets a Rugby Ball and 3 cups from a Heinz Big Soup promo stand in my local Asda, buzzing with them really looking forward to it. The tickets are for the North stand.

Manly clearly needed more game time before a match of this level. They looked well off the boil in attack. Leeds looked great though and you can't take it away from them due to the score line. Far better in the end.

When they (or any other English team) can do it in Australia against a match fit and fully prepared NRL team, I'll be impressed. As it stands, the whole concept is ridiculously weighted in our favour.

That's because the Ausies won't and I mean they refuse to stage it therefore the SL team can't be blamed if the NRL team comes over half cooked. If the Ausies are poorly prepared that's their fault for not being professional enough, the game doesn't start on the refs whistle it starts weeks earlier with proper conditioning and preparation. History shows that in this competition the English teams/clubs are more professional than their Ausie counterparts.



If the Ausies don't like the way it's set up then the message to them is that they should stop whining when they lose and do something about it otherwise suck it up, you lost!

id be impressed if Hull ever got anywhere near a WCC first

Didn't Wigan do just that?

I may be wrong but didn*t Leeds say they would have gone down under to play the match?
